Cluster analysis or clustering is the task of grouping a set of objects in such a way that objects in the same group (called a cluster) are more similar (in some sense) to each other than to those in other groups(clusters). it is a main task of exploratory analysis, and a common te...
Hierarchical clustering,also known ashierarchical cluster analysis,is an algorithm that groups similar objects into groups calledclusters. The endpoint is a set of clusters,where each cluster is distinct from each other cluster, and the objects within each cluster are broadly similar to each other. ...
Moreover, as added bonus, the rpuHclust function creates identical cluster analysis output just like the original hclust function in R. Note that the algorithm is mostly CPU based. The memory access turns out to be too excessive for GPU computing. > system.time(rpuHclust(d)) # rpuHclust ...
1. Understanding the hierarchical clustering algorithm: Hierarchical clustering can be performed using two main approaches: agglomerative and divisive. Agglomerative clustering starts with each data point as an individual cluster and then merges the most similar clusters iteratively until one cluster remains...

This procedure attempts to identify relatively homogeneous groups of cases (or variables) based on selected characteristics, using an algorithm that starts with each case (or variable) in a separate cluster and combines clusters until only one is left. You can analyze raw variables, or you can ...
Hierarchical clustering, orhierarchical cluster analysis(HAC) is such a data analysis algorithm. It is to quantify the distance (or similarity) between data according to some predefined metric, and use dendrogram to present these distances and reveal hierarchical relationships. In 1948, Danish botanist...
The crucial choice when deciding on a cluster analysis algorithm is to decide how to quantify dissimilarities between two clusters. The algorithm described above was characterized by the fact that at each step, when updating the matrix of dissimilarities, the maximum of the between-cluster dissi...

In this article, we discussed hierarchical clustering, which is a type of unsupervised machine learning algorithm that works by grouping clusters based on distance measures and similarity. We also learned about the types of hierarchical clustering, how it works and implementing the same using Python....
